Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 (from prev. post)<br><br> Now we would discuss what is the compulsion that forces this combination. We know nature and its two elements akaash and prana. It can do three jobs if inspired i.e. creation, operation and destruction. These three qualities of nature are called Sattva, Raj, and Tam in Hinduism.<br><br> The Brahm or Purusha, whose happiness is in self manifestation, forces nature by reflecting his Chetna into herself and this combination is our God. This God so formed also has the original quality of Purusha i.e. happiness in self manifestation. The more the manifestation the more the happiness he gets to reach the Paramananda of Purusha. And Nature, to fulfil His desires presents different combinations and mutations to enable him manifest. <br><br>In the beginning stages, Nature is full of Sattava because God reflects its creativity, Raj and Tam are present but inactive. This Raj and Tam slowly increase and allow nature to make/create new things the final outcome being universe and bodies.<br><br>Similarly, the consciousness manifests itself in different units (animals, humans). Like Purusha is present in Nature in two roles, Purusha and God (unattached and attached) similarly God plays double role in humans.... God and Jiva means the consciousness present in us if attaches itself to the body, it is Jiva (or soul) and if it detaches itself from body, it is god<br><br> It implies that the consciousness if attached to the most impure prakriti (our body), it is called soul, if it sees through the Prakriti, it is God and when it sees beyond Maya it is Purusha. So God and human are formed basically to satisfy the manifestation of Purusha. This creativity is the sole cause of Universe and it is main quality of God. <br><br>(to continue....)
